Vivian Wilson on Wednesday deplored her estranged father Elon Musk’s “abhorrent” post about Taylor Swift following the pop star’s endorsement of the Democratic presidential ticket.
“The timing for the Taylor Swift endorsement of Kamala Harris honestly could not have been better. Can’t wait to see the Swifties at the polls! Vote blue,” Wilson wrote on Threads.
“Also, yes, I saw ‘the tweet,’” she added. “Heinous incel nonsense is in fact heinous incel nonsense. I don’t really have anything to add to it, it’s just abhorrent. That much is obvious and if you don’t see how then you’re part of the problem. I would just like to say to my audience members, don’t let people talk to you like that. It’s disgusting, it’s belittling and incredibly sexist. You deserve better.”
Swift gave Harris her influential and long-awaited endorsement on Tuesday night, signing off on the post as a “childless cat lady” in a jab at comments made by Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance.
Soon afterward, Musk apparently felt compelled to give his two cents, in a post that many viewers interpreted as a disgusting and creepy offer to impregnate Swift.
“Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life,” the billionaire wrote on X, the social media platform he renamed from Twitter.
The Tesla CEO has at least 12 children with three women. Wilson is one of six children Musk had with his first wife, Canadian author Justine Musk. Wilson changed her legal name in 2022 to reflect her gender identity and to distance herself from her father. Wilson is her mother’s maiden name.
She has publicly denounced Elon Musk on several occasions recently. In July, after Musk suggested his child was “dead” to him in a gross anti-trans spiel on a podcast, Wilson systematically tore apart his claims and noted, “He doesn’t know what I was like as a child because he quite simply wasn’t there.”
Last month, she called him a “serial adulterer who won’t stop fucking lying about your own children.”
Musk has endorsed Republican nominee Trump.
